Can you do a video about how to learn how to code languages, specifically HTML, CSS, and JavaScript? How did you learn and how you would go about it if you were to start over again. Thank you so much, love your videos so useful.

Very insightful!! I was inspired by your video on how to create a portfolio that stands out. Thanks to your knowledge, I got my first internship as a Product Designer. Hopefully, this can lead me into the world of UX Design in the future
Thank you!

Which part did you find most useful?
Would love a video or a checklist about the things someone “must know” before starting to apply for a ui/ux job. Especially for those who want to change careers
Another great video , thank you! How did you decide if someone could be a good mentor for you ? Was it based on what specific areas you wanted to get better at or that this person is already at the level / sector / company you want to be in ?
been binging your videos lately LOL thank you so much for making these videos!! so so helpful!

@@sharonyeunkim I’m graduating with my Bachelor’s in May, & I think something helpful to learn about is maybe the most important skills (like maybe how to construct an attractive UX resume that’s able to get past initial screenings) or what you should know as a new grad that wants to go into UX!

Great video could you do a video on the interview questions they asked you
Great video, thanks! Did you practice your UI a lot? If so, how and do you have any tips/ resources?
Fun fact: In our country from South Asia. There is a position called UI/UX engineer. Where graphic design, front-end development, and UI/UX design all come together. Without knowing all these you can't get a job or even an internship. Most small companies require you to get good at these skills which is stressful to get a job. But I always come to your channel to learn something new about ux and you never disappoint me.
terimakasih atas videonya, tetap semangat dan menginspirasi
Sharon!! Is it crucial to learn HTML, CSS, and JavaScript to secure an internship at Amazon or in any tech industry?
Hi Sharon , I really love your videos but I really need your help in my case study .Actually I was making a case study where I am explaining some problems about my product that I made, but that product is covering a lot of problems, probably 5 or 6 , so how do I showcase my problem statement and whose problem's process should I carry on in my case study?
You look like mulan 😍
